Abstract

Almeida Faria’s fictional polyphony highlights voices of various origins, stemming from diverse geographical spaces: in monologues, in epistolary exchanges, in the narrator’s discourse, they expanded from the Alentejo, the writer’s homeland, to the world. This thirst for the wide world and the consequent dialogue of cultures culminates in the chronicle/fiction of the author’s trip to India, of which significant fragments are pieced together, to be reunified and explained in post-trip writing.
